Tranquility Day Spa

I have had a lot of different massages but this one topped them all. First, an hour of deep tissue massage, followed by a half hour of reflexology. Their massage therapists are professional but still friendly and they don't pretend to know your body better than you do. I've already recommended this place to a bunch of my friends, if you really need to relax and de-stress, this is the place to go. more

I recommend Tranquility for waxing (it's the only thing I've had done there). The wax was professional, quick, and (practically) painless. I loved the location because I could park easily and it wasn't a terribly busy crazy place like the middle of the city would be. Pros: price, location, service more

I decided to treat myself to a mani/pedi last week and after searching the net came up with Tranquility. The prices were very good for the area and the location was also perfect so I booked. The spa is easy to find and there is a huge parking lot across the street (metered). The spa itself is small, but clean and relaxing. The girl who was doing my nails did not talk-which was actually nice since I want to just sit back and relax. The mood was ruined though by the other therapists and techs talking and joking outside of the rooms where THEIR clients were relaxing. Just because we aren't getting massages doesn't mean we don't want a tranquil experience... My pedicure looks great, my manicure...not so much. The polish was bubbly and uneven but because the girl lett the room I couldn't say anything. After 4 cycles of the dryer she still hadn't returned, so I got up and went to pay. She ran after me telling me she had to spray my nails and looked mad that I left without her. But...she was gone too long. I left without making another appointment, but I will go back. I just won't get that same girl (I think it was Erica). Also-if they offer you coffe, make sure they don't forget you. I never got mine. Prices are great-spa is nice and it's located in an easy to find/park area..this is why I'll go back. Pros: Prices, parking, location Cons: The staff who are not working-they forget that there are other guests who like quiet. more

In Novemeber (8) of us rented the Spa for the Day for my daughters 30th Birthday. Between us we had massages, facials, pedicures & manicures. The therapists catered to our every wish,we were treated like queens. We were provided with beverages, fruit & cheese to snack on while waiting for our treatments. Everyone was extremely satisified with the services we received. I would difintely do this again. Pros: Ambience, Service more

The "Ultimate Day at the Spa" was a birthday gift from my friend and was exactly what I needed. Very relaxing, and the staff were very friendly and professional. They also did not try to talk me into buying products that I don't need. And I loved the chairs used for the pedicures! They add to the overall comfort and ambiance of the spa. Pros: Ambiance, service, friendly staff Cons: pedicure didn't last long more

I have had my fair share of massages, I suffer from tension headaches (which seem like migraines on most days). Unfortunately I was having an awful headache the last week that nothing could solve. Everywhere was booked up or not opened late enough. Until I came across Tranquility on this website. They were only opened until 7 but let me book a 6:45 appointment. I was a little hesitate that my appointment would be cut short or not done well because it was the end of the day, but it was just the opposite. I believe the person I saw her name was Jen? She was wonderful! down to earth person who not only asked what I needed but then followed through with it. Although my headache problem was not totally solve in the half hour appointment it was still a great help. There anti stress atmosphere with lighting and color schemes was wonderful.Parking was a breeze, little hard to find because it is on a side street, but definitely a wonderful find! I am looking into booking a package for my mother for christmas. This place is affordable, but not the cheapest around....You get what you pay for though! Pros: excellent service, parking, appointment hours and flexiblity Cons: busy street outside, but the music overcame the loud cars going by. more

I have been getting facials here since January and I love it!! Leah is one of the best! I actually live in Boston but drive out to Watertown b/c this spa is way better than any of the overpriced spas downtown. My skin has never felt and looked better. Tranquility has convenient hours after work as well as weekends. I really don't have anything negative to say about this place. I highly recommend it to everyone out there! Pros: affordable prices, parking, knowledgable staff Cons: none :) more

I recently went to the Tranquility Day Spa after reading reviews of it on City Search and it has lived up to its reputation as being a great day spa. The spa clean and well maintained with calm colors and soft music. Leah, the owner was very nice and knowledgeable. While I was there, I received the problematic facial and it was pure heaven for 90 minutes. I plan to go back in September for my follow up facial. AND if you're a teacher, She gives a 10% discount on Wednesdays and Thursdays. Pros: good price, tons of parking Cons: none more

I have to say, Diane was amazing with the manicure and pedicure. She was so patient and sweet, I loved how my feet looked afterwards and thats saying something because I hate my feet and am very self conscious about them. She was just great, and the favorite part of my spa package which included the hr massage and hr facial. Everyone was very nice and considerate. Pros: Staff and service, massage during the facial Cons: ... more

A great local spa hidden in Watertown Square. Plenty of nearby metered parking. It appeared to be an older building so it had the charm of an old New England home - but with soothing colors and decorations. Very reasonable prices for a spa experience, and their web site has monthly specials. I had en eyebrow wax which was well done & gentle for my sensitive skin. Pros: Easy to find & plenty of local parking Cons: Small space more

I had my first bikini wax here and it was a great place! I have been here before for a facial (which was amazing) so I deiced to try it again. Leah was very reassuring when I told her it was my first time. She went through the process with me, and assured me that it'll be less painful each time I go back (I've read that before too). She was very nice and chatted with be throughout which was a nice distraction. I would absolutely go back! Pros: Atmosphere, staff Cons: None more

Way better facial than the much more expensive one I got in NYC not too long ago. Another reviewer said it best, Leah gives an amazing facial, fabulous skin care advice, and doesn't push product on you. My skin felt amazing after, and I could have easily fallen fast asleep during. Love the atmosphere, very calming and welcoming. Everyone I encountered was extremely nice also. I will be going every few weeks from now on. Pros: Ambience, parking, prices, knowledge Cons: none I can think of more

This place was a nice find, the atmosphere was great and I loved all the cute decorations. I got my eyebrows waxed by Leah. She was very friendly and did a good job. It was a little expensive for me, I am used to paying less. Overall, it was a nice experience. If you are looking for a place in the area I would check it out. Pros: Atmosphere, Friendly Staff Cons: A Bit Pricey more

This was my first visit to a spa, I have to say I will definitely go back! I had a facial with Leah it was awesome, she explained every application and what it entailed. I also received a massage from Jen it too was awesome. I felt totally refreshed after leaving. The rest of the staff was friendly and courteous. The spa was spotless and the music was so soothing. It definitely is "Tranquility" Thanks so much to the staff for a great first visit Linda- Waltham, MA Pros: Great Service!!! Cons: None more

This place was wonderful-- I got my eyebrows waxed by Leah, the owner, a week before my wedding, and she did an amazing job. The room featured a comfortable table/bed to lie on and soft music, and she worked efficiently but made me feel totally relaxed. I loved the results-- very natural. I will definitely be returning to this spa as soon as I can. Pros: Staff friendliness (not snobby!), price Cons: nada more

The most enjoyable mani-pedi I have ever had! I got the 'Paint the Town Red' package as a gift and had never been to Tranquility, but I will be sure to return. The ambiance so wonderful, very tranquil and relaxing to even step foot in the door. My mani-pedi was with Diane who was absolutly amazing! The massage lotions used smelled great and felt great. They also have a nicely displayed selection of colors to choose from. What else can I say, it was great! I will be coming back and trying some more spa treatments! Pros: Ambience, comfort, parking, staff, clean Cons: Stereo system wasn't working more

A gem of a find, location not in a busy area, thus Tranquility sets the tone. Parking is not an issue. This spa is beautifully appointed for the space they are in, and the staff is very into customer satisfaction. I had a facial with Leah who does have magic fingers. My facial was not rushed and I like the fact that she explained about the prodcuts that were being used. I highly recommend Tranquility Day Spa for the ultimate in a luxury experience.

I went to Tranquility Day Spa for the first time this past weekend with my mother. I've been to a few spas and this was, by far, the best experience I've had. It was my mom's first time at a spa and she was very nervous going for the first time. She was shocked by how relaxing it was and now she wants to go back again! The facial was absolutely amazing--it includes an arm, shoulder and neck massage and fantastic skin care. I was so relaxed I couldn't move a muscle if I had tried. Massage, mani and pedi were also wonderful. Customer service is the best I've every had at a spa, friendly, efficient and they don't push products or more services on you. Excellent prices. All in all, this has to be one of the bes spas around! Pros: Great prices, great care, great atmosphere Cons: Ummm, none. more

At first, I didn't have the best feeling about this place. I guess I'm spoiled--I think, "day spa", or "full-service salon", and I think that there should be coffee being served, sometimes wine. I was a little tired yesterday, so I was hoping for coffee. Usually places like these offer to take your coat for you, but that wasn't offered either. The nail tech, Erika, seemed really slow, but then again, I am comparing my experience to another place, the Taiwanese nail salon down my street, where the girls are like machines, completing a mani/pedi in less than one hour. But, as I sat there, I realized that I should just relax and enjoy my experience and being away for a little while. Erika was really sweet--very young, but sweet. She was slow because she really took her time to do everything correctly. She took a very long time to massage, which you don't get at the Taiwanese place! I was almost asleep. When I got back to my car, I realized that I had been gone for almost 2.5 hours. I would recommend this place if you aren't in a rush. The prices at this place are pretty darn good; you can't get much better than $27 for a pedicure at a spa, so I forgive them for not offering coffee--they did offer water, however, as a recommendation, having coffee is a nice touch, plus it doesn't cost too much to provide. Pros: Lots of parking, quality of service provided more

I thought the staff was wicked nice! like they were just really friendly and they really did everything to my expectations. I got my eyebrows waxed and they did come out how I wanted, and I really liked them. My friend went as well but she said that it wasn't done to her suggestions. She did like them though. The ZEN feeling really made it feel awesome. It was a really great place and they definitely put their "hearts" into it. Thank you very much! I will definitely come again!! Pros: Ambience Cons: Parking more
